200 is getting so much closer! It feels really weird to see those numbers on the scale. I still don't think my brain has quite caught up. It doesn't help that we don't have full length mirrors in the house. I've also come to realize this is around the weight I was in my senior year of high school, but my body was shaped differently. I don't think I had quite the flabby gut that I do now, so I don't feel any different than I did at 245.
Here are the measurements from 12/4/11 and 1/1/12, just to compare at one month rather than from the start:
Neck: 14.5" / 14.25"
Bicep: 14.25" / 13.5"
Chest: 46.5" / 44.75"
Waist: 46.25" / 46.25"
Hips: 47.75" / 46.75"
Thigh: 23.25" / 23.25"
Calf: 16.75" / 16"
That brings the total to 17.5" lost since August 21, and 4.5" since last month!
Oh! I also learned that since the week of Thanksgiving, I have lost 11.6 pounds! I've seen so many people comment that they either maintained or gained that I cannot even express how thankful I feel that the holidays are now past and I didn't gain a single pound! For as anxious and freaked out as I was, I showed myself that I really could enjoy the holidays and all the wonderful food, but within moderation without feeling deprived. Best thing is, I have goodies in the freezer to last me until at least spring!
